Photosystems use light energy, primarily from sunlight, to drive the process of photosynthesis. They harness this energy to excite electrons, which then participate in a series of reactions that convert carbon dioxide and water into glucose and oxygen. Specifically, Photosystem II absorbs light to split water molecules, while Photosystem I further energizes electrons to ultimately contribute to the synthesis of ATP and NADPH, essential energy carriers in the process.

Role of pigments and photosystems in the capture of light energy?

Pigments, like chlorophyll, absorb light energy and transfer it to photosystems within chloroplasts. Photosystems are protein complexes that contain chlorophyll and other pigments, which facilitate the conversion of light energy into chemical energy through photosynthesis. Together, pigments and photosystems play a crucial role in capturing and converting light energy for use in the synthesis of ATP and NADPH during photosynthesis.
